THE FEDERAL COURT.
Judge Hughes Decides In Favor OF Mrs.
Zinmer's Claim.

In the United States Court-Judge
Hughes sitting-the case of Lyons Broth
ers against G. thinner, which was some
time ago decided adversely to the claim
of Mrs. thinner, and in which a rehear-
ing was granted, was yesterday decided.
The evidence was conclusive that the
whole amount of Mrs Zimmer's rents
preferred in the deed had been in fact re-
ceived by c. thinner, her husband. The
Court holds that as to that so received
before about January 1, 1891, there was
no sufficient evidence of an understand
ing between them. for its repayment; but
that as to the amount received after that
time there was satisfactory evidence Of
such understanding, and to that extent
the preference is sustained The Court
holds also that the deed, so far as it pre-
fers to the debts of c. thinner on which
Mrs. thinner is security, and in all other
respects, is valid.

Release After Eighteen Years.
NASHVILLE, Tenn, May 7.-Eighteen
years ago the doors OF the State prison
closed upon Frank Riddle, of Maury coun-
tv, who had been sentenced to life I'M
prisonment Tor numbering German ped
der.
There were doubts as TO the guilt OF Rid
die, who refused to acknowledge the crime
and accept term OF fifteen years, insist
Ing upon plea OF not guilty.
The trial resulted in his conviction, and
the defendant appealed to the supreme
Court, which granted new hearing. A
second verdict against Riddle was rendered
aud he was sent to the penitentiary.
Year after year passed. One after an
other Of the life ronvictS died, and Riddle
almost abandoned hope of obtaining his
freedom.
While Governor Taylor was seated in his
Office, yesterday, a woman walked into the
apartment and presented to the Governor
a petition iOr executive ClcmcnCy signed 10y
the lcsSCrs and every officer Of the prison,
who stated that Riddles long nclrccra-
tion had served the ends of justice. Ac-
compauying the petition was letter writ
ten nv the woman who bore it.
After the Governor had read the doCu-
mcnts the lady rose, and addressing HIM,
said:
"GOvcrnor Taylor when that man was
,,N' I IN Ia
married To him. did not believe him
guilty, and did not break the engagement.
During the two or three years that the
trial was pending still believed in him.

mcnt have stuck to him His parents
have died His brothers and sisters are MI

two lives that mayyct be happy, | implorc

Without waiting 10 hear the Governors
decision she arose and left the Office, and
the Capitol. When the Governor had
cleared his eyes Of tears he said to Bishop
CRANBERRY:
"Such devotion and consistency | have
never seen and whatever Riddle may have
deserved, it dOus look rs ii that woman
